just wondering, board+bindings
 
#38 ·
Last year i specifically set out to buy light (on a budget) as i was convinced it would help with flat ground ollies and other jumps (not to mention carrying board/boots/bindings/wear in a board bag over one shoulder for long distances was really quite a hassle). Looking at other measurements here i think i did end up with a light setup, but the total difference is so small i dont know why i bothered...

K2 Parkstar 152 & Burton Mission Restricted (M) 4.7kg (10.4lb)
Boots (Burton Imperial 27cm) 1.6kg (3.5lb)
Combined 6.3kg (13.9lb)

The boots themselves feel light as hell though, less than some of my regular shoes.

Was curious so weighed out my old board and new one

2011 k2 turbo dream 157w - 6.8 lbs
2013 jones mountain twin 160 - 7.6 lbs
Jones w/ 2011 k2 formulas - 11.6 lbs
2011 k2 darkos size 11 - 4.8 lbs

The TD was pretty light for a wide board, the jones I would say is about average based on this thread.. Maybe a touch heavier. Was on a bathroom scale though so who knows..

I'd like to see more weight info on mervin decks

Since I was putting gear away for summer storage, I did some measuring was well (all weights in lbs).

Jones Mothership '14 156 + Burton Escapade = 10.1 (board 6.2, binding 3.9)
Jones wmn Solution '14 156 + Spark Afterburner = 11.2 (board with pucks 7.5, binding 3.7)

Ride Cascade wmn 8.5 boots = 4.8
Arc'teryx shell pants n jacket = 2.6
-> Basic clothing = 7.4

Baryvox = 1.3
Avy backpack with full cartridge = 7.5
Showel/probe = 2.4
-> Backpack with basic avy gear = 11.2

Skins/crampons/poles = 3.5
-> Backpack when hiking (w/o food) = 14.7

This sums up to:
-> BC gear with basic clothing n solid board = 28.7
-> BC gear with basic clothing n splitboard n stuff = 33.3

Boardbag with the 2 Jones boards n bindings, shovel, probe, poles, skins, crampons, helmet, 2 goggles, boots, climbing harness = 43.5

Some other boards:
Ride Farah '13 153 + Ride Fame = 10.1
NS Raptor '13 164 + K2 Company = 11.4
Jones Carbon Flagship '14 164 + NOW Drive = 11.2
Jones Solution '14 164 + Spark Afterburner = 12.1

Interestingly, the difference between a 164 Solution and a 156 wmn Solution is only 0.9lb.

Haha, learned on the last trip, that sometimes one has to adapt. Nice little conversation in AK: Me boasting with long runs of >2200m vert. Guy glacing at me unimpressed with blank face. Me converting to feet. Him: OOOh...yea! :blink: :)

Been buying a new setup recently, I was interested in the weight of stuff and couldn't find much info. Here's what I have:

Old:
(2009-ish) Neversummer Evo 153: 2.96kg
K2 Formula: 2.06kg
Rome Smith boots: 2.15kg
Total: 7.17kg

New:
2019 Capita Springbreak Twin 154: 2.68kg
Union Strata: 1.72kg (don't have those yet, actually found the weight on the interwebs)
Burton Ruler: 1.7kg
total: 6.1kg

So the whole setup is actually over 1kg (2.3lbs) lighter, which is pretty good and definitely noticeable. It does add up.
